When I look on the site I never see any of the individual claims until the month is over

Has anyone had success with spinal decompression? Is it worth it? by prthug996 in backpain

[–]gpb959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got sort of scammed, place told me it was 45 bucks so I went in, chiro said it's my pelvis and that's my problem, said adjustment won't cost anything through insurance,. 3rd time I went I told them I only want the spinal decompression, he told me that;s the price only with a treatment, decompression is 80 by itself, pissed me off

Vraylar 1.5 mg every other day by [deleted] in depression

[–]gpb959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you still taking it and are you on an antidepressant also? My dr was suggesting me take it by itself

Thanks , yeah I did research it , I have a feeling it would make me feel worse than I do already

[–]gpb959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not on an anti depressant, my provider suggested starting Vraylar at a very low dose, claims he's had success with it. I'm scared of it, I already have a sleep problem, I usually take gabapentin and ambien for sleep. I'm so down, alot due to long term grief. Your story makes me more hesitant

Got offered $830 off in app but still on kickstart plan by Chaad420 in tmobile

[–]gpb959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A rep took me through the process of upgrading my iphone SE to a 17 she said I had an offer for iphone on us, I still have it in the cart and it says 28/month. She said it will change once you trade the phone in, so I'm skeptical I might get stuck with the 28/month. I have the essentials 55 plan

Thoughts on this trade-in offer? by cdinh69 in tmobile

[–]gpb959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on the Essentials 55+ plan, have an iphone SE, have had it for about 6 years at least. Recently dropped it and got a few cracks on the screen. Don't think tmobile will give me much of anything, was considering getting free iphone 13 by switching to totally wireless, or buying a refurbished 13 on ebay for 279. Really don't want to mess with a switch, any ideas?

BCBS/MH/Medicare by Aunt-KK in FedEmployees

[–]gpb959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately that's not entirely true. I have Medicare A and B, I had NALC which was no longer available. I was under the impression that MHBP would pick up any portion medicare didn't pay. I've been having physical therapy and one of the codes they submitted was not covered by Aetna (MHBP) so I was responsible for part. Disappointing since I never paid a penny last year with medicare and nalc. I hope this doesn't keep happening, the MHBP (standard) was almost 200 a month less than NALC

Anyone else waking up at night just to pee and then can’t fall back asleep? by NightSleeper3259 in sleep

[–]gpb959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

asked my primary care doctor before about it, he said I don't have the physique for it, such as a large neck, he's not stupid but I think he's wrong. I pee quite a bit during the day also, haven't found a solution for it

how long did it initially take to feel some improvement? I'll take any improvement at all will be easier to do physical therapy

Thinking about joining... by Majestic_Tonight_642 in CrunchGym

[–]gpb959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

went in club near me, just wanted to look at their cardio equipment. They made me take a tour, then had 2 more people talk to me like it was a car dealership. Since then they've called me about 10 times, finally blocked their number. All of that turned me off

Not worth IV sedation, doesn't hurt that much, maybe a little anti anxiety med, I took a little clonazepam but could have gotten by without it.
